The Arrow Thread

[Justin101]

The people over at Blurage are using the logic that it's probably something on the High Fliers/De Laurentiis roster as we know that they have Dune already and they probably got the rights to that as part of a bundle deal. This means it could be something like Halloween 2 or 3.

i'm not getting excited. havent been able to for a while with arrow. we will see.

I'm expecting to be disappointed , can't see it being a major slasher,it will be a lesser or unknowing one or a 4k ultra version of one they already released

I doubt Halloween 3 as I wouldn't class it as a slasher. Truth be told though, I'd rather have 3 than 2. Actually, both please...

Slight aside. I noticed the BFI's Short Sharp Shocks includes The Errand. As I recall this was the support feature for Halloween 3 when I saw it in the cinema on its original release.

Let's face it, scream factory and other Region A labels have released the classics. I resisted buying a multi region player for so long but I folded & got one (Australian Godzilla sets.....THANK YOU!!!) so now sadly have most I want. I can only imagine most folks have done the same, so Arrow have missed out.

I appreciate the obscurity of the stuff they're putting out, I'm just not going to buy it. I still think they're awesome but the classics have been done!

Hoping it's something I haven't thought of!

What a terrible cover on that box set! I'm glad I have all the separate discs. I'm sure it's good value for anyone interested in watching the films though, the extra features are all really good on each of the 4 discs, Jörg it seems kept a lot of stuff over the years.

Don't like the cover, but never in my life would I believe this lot would be easily accessable to uk collectors.
I have all the single releases & remember seeing reviews/images in magazines like In the Flesh, Gore Score & Dark Side, wondering what the films themselves would be like.

Arrow, amazing job for a brilliant director!
